Let it be known that 4Gb microSDHC cards have been announced by more than one company. Apparently these will not be supported by default in microSD devices. Does anyone know if the Neo will support these in theory? Wasp 00:06, 16 February 2007 (CET)

Also 8GB MicroSD cards have now been announced. Would be really nice to know if it's just a driver issue or something more.

How to test

Can we please define repeatable tests? atm I just copy stuff there and back - there is probably more to it. Tested the Sandisk 512 and 1024 cards Johan 22:27, 4 August 2007 (CEST)

Use newer kernel for testing

As the 2.6.17 kernel is pretty outdated and openmoko uses 2.6.22 for a long time now, we maybe should use this kernel version for testing, shouldn't we? --Thomasg 16:23, 23 September 2007 (CEST)

i strongly second that. please do not test with ancient and totally outdated software. this will only generate bogus bugreports which hold everybody from seeing the real problems. with recent i mean 2.6.22.5-moko11 or newer. please also add the exact release (including svnr if possible) when filing a bug.

same goes for uboot. currently we are at svnr 2943 or higher. please do not file bugs against uboots which are totally outdated. if you want to update your uboot for tests, please contact me and i'll try to supply you with a tested uboot for your device. --Roh 22:03, 23 September 2007 (CEST)
